Cognac Louis XIII

Louis XIII cognac is one of the most prestigious and rare cognacs. It is a complex blend of the best batches (up to 1,200 different batches) of Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie, the premier cru of the Cognac region. Four generations of cellar masters have succeeded each other over a century to elaborate this cognac. Today, Baptiste Loiseau is the one who chooses the eaux-de-vie that he will leave to his successors.

This cognac was named "Louis XIII" in homage to King Louis XIII who favored the trade of brandies during his reign. Since 1876, it has been exported all over the world and the decanter that houses it was exhibited at the 1900 Universal Exhibition in Paris. Both a jewel and a work of art, it is decorated with fleur-de-lis, the royal symbol. No two decanters are alike. Handcrafted by the best master crystal makers throughout Europe, each decanter is numbered, attesting to its uniqueness. Its lines are enhanced by a 20-carat gold neck and decorated with 10 laces. A chip embedded in the cork allows customers to join the Louis XIII Society, a private club whose members can enjoy exclusive content. 

Imbued with the complexity of centuries-old know-how, Louis XIII is full of light, opulent and intense floral aromas. It evokes notes of myrrh, honey, dried rose, plum, honeysuckle, cigar box, leather, fig and passion fruit. Take the time to savor every sip of this exceptional Cognac.
